virginia democratic state senator john s. edwards told me on my radio show that democrats were completely blindsided by this move. >> it was a complete underhanded sneak attack on not only democrats but also the people of virginia because if people had had no prior warning this would happen there, have been no committee discussions on this, no hearings on this, and it runs contrary to the courtesies and traditions of the senate of virginia. >> they should be no courtesy from the current republican party. they are willing to admit these changes are being made in order to make certain votes count for less. carrico told a virginia nbc affiliate the change is necessary because virginia's populace, urbanized areas can outvote rural regions such as his, rendering their will irrelevant. urbanized areas? this sounds like something we've heard before. >> i think the surprise was some of the turnout. some of the turnout, especially in urban areas, which definitely gave president obama the big margin to win this race. >> both paul ryan

john mccain four years ago only got 31%. if you look at george bush, he received, i think 40%, even though immigration wasn't really on the agenda. it shows that it is somewhat condescending that hispanics are single voters about immigration just because they are immigration. most hispanics like most americans are focused on what leaders going to do for them and the economy and securing their streets and securing their place in the world. that shows in the exit polls, hispanic voters are not single-issue voters. as a republican party we can probably do better by being more welcoming in our rhetoric at times and there is a lot of policies that recognize that we are, not just a nation of immigrants, but a nation of laws. expediting illegal immigration. i have an interpreder the from afghanistan who tries to get a visa but he fails to get a visa because there is not enough visas. he could come here easily lylely but he wants to do the right thing to be a productive citizen. same thing with immigrants that are already here. if t

i'm want here to relitigate john's trial. he pled guilty to one instance of giving the name to a cia operative. many of us who signed the letter believe that this should be put in perspective. john is a cia officer who served very bravely for his country for more than a decade overseas. in some of the most dangerous places of the world. he most notably led the team that went in and captured abu zubada in 2002. the first senior al qaeda figure captured after 9/11. the capture of el zubada was critical to the line of captures that ultimately led to the death of osama bin laden. secondly, there is precedent here for commutation of this offense. four years ago -- scooter libby had leaked the name of a cia officer valley plame to the press. i would say he did it deliberately and i would say maliciously. that did badly damage a cia operational capability. yet, his sentence was commuted. let's put john's situation in some perspective. does the punishment fit the crime here? i think he has already been punished a lot. he has incurred
